“I am deeply saddened and shocked about what transpired yesterday," she tells Usmagazine.com in a statement. "My heart and prayers go out to her family.”
Her rep tells Entertainment Tonight that the woman had been an extreme fan and had "issues." They knew about her for "several years," her rep tells ET.
The license plate to Goodspeed's car read "ABL LV"; a picture of Abdul hung from the rear-view mirror.
The woman's car was found after 6 p.m. on Tuesday after the Los Angeles Police Department received a call. The cause of death may have been a drug overdose in an apparent suicide, according to TMZ.com.
Abdul was working on Idol all day and returned home late in the evening after the scene had cleared.
